Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
Payment terms cover a variety of different payment terms, subject to the nature of the contract and the invoice. Typical payment terms can include:
7 Days
14 Days
30 Days
60 Days
20th day of the following month
30 Days from end of month - Other payment-term information
Intercompany invoices and performance have been excluded from reported statistics as these entirely relate to transactions between wholly owned group companies, and would distort performance if included.
- Dispute resolution process
Invoices are matched by a dedicated Accounts Payable team on receipt, and disputed invoices are notified to the supplier. Any disputes are managed directly with the supplier and investigated to resolve them in a timely manner.
Disputes may arise due to, but not limited to, the following circumstances:
• Non-receipt of invoice
• Non-receipt of goods
• Delivered product/service does not agree to invoice
• Incomplete or incorrect information
• Incorrect address or company name
• VAT requirements
• Change of details (i.e. new bank account)
Earlier payment reports (2 shown)
- 23.0 average days to pay17.0% outside terms
- 21.0 average days to pay21.0% outside terms
This is a company-submitted statutory disclosure, not a credit rating. BritDB preserves the reporting period and links the report only through the Companies House number supplied by the official service. Percentages describe payments made during that period and may change in later reports.

An official document URL is recorded and is available through the dedicated source page; no direct external link is placed here.
These are candidate company associations. The public-register downloads do not supply Companies House numbers. BritDB requires one unique exact holder-name and postcode match; the regulated site may differ from the registered office, so verify the record at source.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
08 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
09 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
10 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
11 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
12 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
